Perry County 72 Hour Booking Portal
The Perry County ISOMS Inmate Portal is the best tool for looking up 72 hour booking records in this county. ISOMS stands for Integrated Sheriff's Office Management System. It shows a full list of current inmates with photos. Each record includes the person's full name, age, race, sex, intake date and time, city of residence, the department that made the arrest, and the arresting officer's badge number.
Charges show up in a table with bond amounts. You can see exactly what someone is in for and how much their bond is set at. If the person has been released, the release date shows on the record too. This is one of the more detailed county jail portals in Ohio. Most small counties do not give you this much information online.

Southeastern Ohio Regional Jail
Perry County uses the Southeastern Ohio Regional Jail instead of running its own standalone facility. SEORJ sits at 110 West Brown Street in New Lexington, OH 43764. The phone number is 740-342-4123. The jail serves five counties: Perry, Athens, Hocking, Morgan, and Vinton. All bookings for Perry County arrests go through this facility.
Having a regional jail means the booking process stays the same across all five counties. The intake procedure follows Ohio Administrative Code 5120:1-8-01 standards. Staff collect the person's name, date of birth, charges, height, weight, home address, and other identifying info. A health screening happens at intake. People held past 72 hours get a full health check. The ISOMS portal pulls its data from this same system.
Note: Visitation at SEORJ follows its own schedule, so check with the jail directly for current visiting hours and rules.
